System for fitting and electrically connecting lighting elements
A system for fitting and electrically connecting lighting elements, including at least one junction box accommodated in a wall ( 11 ), the junction box having a housing ( 12 ) provided with an open front side parallel to the wall and with a power supply ( 15 ) therein, and a lath cover ( 2 ) with a pattern of holes ( 3 ) which is coupled to the front side of the housing in order to conceal the junction box in the wall, with a cover plate ( 1 ) being provided between the housing ( 12 ) and the lath cover ( 2 ).
1. A system for fitting and electrically connecting lighting elements, comprising: at least one housing accommodated in a wall, the at least one housing provided with an open front side and a power supply therein, a cover plate mounted on the housing to cover the at least one housing, and further a lath cover with a pattern of holes for mounting any of a variety of lighting or other fixtures, which is attached on the front side of the at least one housing in order to be concealed in the wall, wherein the lath cover is fitted on the cover plate at a distance therefrom, said distance determined by spacers depending on a thickness of a wall finish.
2. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the cover plate and the lath cover comprise one or more openings through which the power supply is accessible.
3. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the power supply can be introduced into the housing after the wall finish has been completed.
4. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the cover plate covers at least the open front side of the housing completely.
5. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the length and/or width dimensions of the cover plate are greater than those of the open front side of the housing.
6. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the cover plate forms the base for mounting a fixture.
7. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the dimensions of the cover plate are adapted to the dimensions of the fixture to be mounted.
8. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the cover plate is made of metal or plastic.
9. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the cover plate comprises notches for securing it to the housing, as well as mounting elements for securing the lath cover and/or a fixture.
10. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein one cover plate covers several housings jointly.
11. The system as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the housings are fitted next to or above each other.
12. The system as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the housings have different dimensions.
13. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the system is completely concealed in the wall.
14. The system as claimed in claim 13 , wherein a fixture can be mounted and connected to the system.
